Roger Federer remains a force within the sports industry despite retiring from professional tennis, making a lasting mark with his business ventures and ventures. Federer, once revered as an icon on court, is now making waves off it through successful entrepreneurship; one venture by him garners widespread notice – most recently from Brad Gilbert (former coach of rising tennis star Coco Gauff). Furthermore, Gilbert recently expressed excitement regarding Federer’s latest move–launching signature sneaker range under his brand.
Brad Gilbert took to his social media pages in celebration of the arrival of new Roger Federer (RF) sneakers at his retail outlet, Brad Gilbert Tennis Nation. Gilbert took great pride in showing the sleek white sneakers with black accents sporting ON and THE ROGER branding and welcomed followers for more information about them. His posts showed Gilbert’s pride as well as excitement as more followers reached out for further assistance regarding them.
Federer’s partnership with the brand ON dates back to 2019 when he acquired a stake in the company and became an active promoter of its products. This collaboration marked a significant milestone in Federer’s off-court ventures, illustrating his keen interest in combining style with functionality in sports apparel and footwear.
Federer has had an enormously positive effect on tennis and society beyond business acumen alone; his contributions are widely recognized across both fields. A powerful address he gave at Dartmouth College on resilience in tennis and life resonated strongly with Gilbert as well as many others; further, Federer shared insights regarding dealing with failure while emphasizing positive attitudes; all which resonated well among fans as well as professionals alike.
Gilbert has great admiration for Federer on many levels – not only his tennis talent and entrepreneurial acumen but also his entrepreneurial zeal and ability to inspire. By stocking Federer’s signature sneakers in Gilbert’s shop, not only will sales increase but it will cement his legacy across various spheres of life.
